Definitions
- the invention has as its object a solution for perfusion and/or preservation and/or re-perfusion during organ transplant, especially of the heart.
- the preservation period of human hearts is at present 4 hours and a certain number of rejections are still due to deterioration in the condition of the transplanted organ between the time of removal and the moment of implantation in the recipient.
- Short-term myocardiac preservation (4 hours) is currently provided by cold storage after cardioplegic arrest.
- Different solutions for arresting and preserving the heart have been developed to protect the myocardium in cardiac surgery.
- the St Thomas solution [Ledingham, S. J. M., Braimbridge, M. V., Hearse, D. J. The St Thomas' Hospital cardioplegic solution: a comparison of the efficacy of two formulations. J. Thorac. Cardiovasc. Surg. (1987) 93: 240-246] has in particular been much used.
- This solution comprises different protective elements; glutathion and allopurinol, inhibitors of the formation of free radicals from oxygen, water resistant agents (lactobionate and raffinose) and adenosine, a precursor of ATP.
- UW University of Wisconsin solution
- This solution comprises different protective elements, glutathion and allopurinol, inhibitors of the formation of free radicals from oxygen, water resistant agents, (lactobionate, raffinose), a precursor of ATP (adenosine).
- the UW solution is characterised for example by a strong concentration in K + (125 mM) damaging to the cells as it leads to contracture, 2) inorganic phosphate (Pi) is equally present in a strong concentration or it is an inhibitor of numerous ATPases (Na + /K + ATPase, Ca 2+ ATPases) and can thus increase the accumulation in poisonous Na + and Ca 2+ in the course of ischemia, 3) it does not comprise any Ca 2+ and because of this induces a massive influx of Ca 2+ during re-perfusion, 4) adenosine has numerous effects on the heart and its concentration is not optimised in the solution, 5) the UW solution does not include a certain number of elements whose protective action has been able to be shown in the heart.
- One of the aims of the invention is to suggest a solution of improved quality, used to arrest the heart then preserve it for a duration longer than 4 hours, with a view to transplantation.
- One of the other aspects of the invention is to suggest a solution for arrest and preservation of the organ, especially the heart, making it possible to maintain cellular and metabolic integrity of the organs after ischemia.
- Another aspect of the invention is to suggest a solution for organ preservation, especially the heart, allowing post-ischemic functional recovery.

- the solution developed within the framework of the present invention for the arrest and the preservation of hearts for long term ischemia is such that it induces cardiac arrest with a strong concentration of magnesium rather than potassium. It comprises moreover glutamate (metabolic substrate of ATP in anaerobic) and is characterised by a non zero concentration in Ca 2+ and a concentration in extracellular type Na + .
- Different protective agents, lactobionate, raffinose, glutathion -reduced form-, allopurinol and adenosine
- lactobionate, raffinose, glutathion -reduced form-, allopurinol and adenosine have been added to this solution.
- certain components adenosine, butanedione-2,3-monoxime
- Recent work has underlined the importance of endothelial dysfunction in the damage linked to the ischemia-re-perfusion sequence. Because of this fact, L-arginine was included, precursor of NO
- solution for re-perfusion during organ transplantation is designated a solution useable during the transplant of an organ, to make the transplanted organ go from an ischemic state to the cardioplegic state.
- the solution of the invention does not contain butanedione 2.3-monoxime.

- the amino acids are measured in the frozen hearts at the end of the experiments. They play an important role in the metabolism and maintenance of cardiac cellular function.

In fact, its position in the spectrum is independent of pH, making it possible to link the chemical displacement of the signal to the pH thanks to a volumetric analysis curve.

- the animal recipient After implantation of the heart, the animal recipient is closed up and the heart is examined after a period of 24 hours.
- a study of the heart is first of all carried out in situ on the whole animal by MRS of the P-31 on the Biospec device by using a 1 H- 31 P bobbin with double connection contact 1.5 cm in diameter. Its morphological appearance is equally examined then, as the heart does not work in this model, the heart is excised and a hemodynamic evaluation is carried out on an isovolumic heart model with energy metabolism evaluation by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (study on the Bruker-Nicolet WP2000 spectrometer coupled to a vertical magnet of 4.7T). The biochemical measurements are equally carried out in the discharges and the frozen hearts at the end of the experiments.
- the transplanted hearts in the 2 groups all resumed regular contractions at the time of de-clamping. After 24 hours the hearts examined in situ by MRS show similar levels of energy metabolites whatever the duration of the ischemia. In the same way the explanted and perfused hearts are characterised in the two groups by similar metabolic and functional indices.
- Protocol 3 improvement of the CRMBM solution by the addition of L-arginine: hemodynamic and metabolic study of the isolated and perfused heart model.
- Protocol 4 comparison of the CRMBM solution with the recently patented Celsior solution: hemodynamic and metabolic study on the isolated and perfused heart model.
- composition of an invention solution containing 4 mM of potassium is like the one described above, and notably comprises KCl (2 mM) and KH 2 PO 4 (2 mM).
- composition of a solution containing 10 mM of potassium is as described above, and notably comprises KCl (2 mM) and KH 2 PO 4 (8 mM).
- the magnetic resonance spectrometry of phosphorous-31 is used throughout the experimental protocol in order to follow the energy metabolism and the intracellular pH.
- the functional recovery is measured before and after the ischemic period.
- Biochemical measurements are equally carried out in the coronary discharges and in frozen hearts at the end of re-perfusion in order to determine the membrane damage.
- HPLC high performance liquid chromatography
- L-arginine in the solution limits the depletion of the pool of amino acids during re-perfusion and improves post-ischemic functional recovery without however affecting the content in adenylic nucleotides.
- 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and papaverine have been used to analyse the variations of vasodilatory responses dependent and independent respectively on the endothelium during pre- and post-ischemic periods.
- the coronary flow is measured in each group during perfusion with the normal buffer solution and during the perfusion of 5-HT and papaverine. After ischemia, the recovery percentage of the pre-ischemic response of coronary flow to the perfusion of 5-HT and papaverine is calculated.
- the study has made it possible to analyse the long term recovery of the heart, comparing 1 hour and 24 hours of re-perfusion.
- the study shows an improvement in functional recovery after 24 hours of re-perfusion, in comparison to 1 hour of re-perfusion, combined with an improvement of energy metabolism.
- the analysis of the energy metabolite ratios suggests a regeneration of the intracellular pool of ATP after 24 hours of re-perfusion, in comparison to 1 hour of re-perfusion, able to be combined with the re-synthesis of ATP precursors.
- the cell will be capable of re-synthesising these precursors.
- recovery of energy metabolism is obtained (cf metabolite ratios), which suggests an actual re-synthesis of the metabolic precursors of ATP.
